Prescreening
• First Stage in SBIRT Process
• With Universal Screening - Most people screen
negative for substance misuse
• Screening is designed to be Brief & Determines:
o Any use versus no use
o Potential for risky use or serious substance use
• Demographics & Prescreen used to establish the
“Denominator” of the program:
o Total people approached & interviewed?
CRAFFT Screening Tool
• CRAFFT is an evidence based six question
behavioral health screening TOOL for youth under
21
• Developed by the Center for Adolescent Substance
Abuse Research (CeASAR), Children’s Hospital,
Boston, in affiliation with Harvard Medical School
• Recommended by the American Academy of
Pediatrics Committee on Substance Abuse for
adolescents
• Available for use in multiple languages in either a
self-administered or clinically administered version
SBIRT Preliminary Questions
The SBIRT screening protocol begins with 3 questions.
During the last 12 months, did you:
1. Drink any alcohol?
(more than a few sips)
2. Smoke any marijuana
or hashish?
3.Use anything else to get
high?
(includes illegal drugs, over-the-counter
and prescription drugs and inhalants)
If YES is given to any of these questions,
then the CRAFFT questions are administered.
CRAFFT Assessment Tool
Each positive answer, scores one point.
C
Have you ever ridden in a CAR Driven by someone (including
yourself) who was “high” or had been using Alcohol/ Drugs?
R
Do you ever use Alcohol or Drugs to RELAX ,feel better about
yourself, or fit in?
A
F
F
Do you ever use Alcohol/ Drugs while you are by yourself, ALONE?
T
Have you ever gotten into TROUBLE while you were using Alcohol
or Drugs?
Do you ever FORGET things you did while using Alcohol or Drugs?
Do your FAMILY or FRIENDS ever tell you that you should cut
down on your Drinking or Drug Use?

Recommended Actions
Reinforcement of Positive Behavior
Brief Advice/ Information
Brief Intervention
Brief Intervention/Brief Therapy/ Referral to Treatment
1. Positive Reinforcement – Give positive feedback on current behaviors
2. Brief Advice – Use medically based information to advise abstinence
3. Brief Intervention – Educate clients and increase motivation to reduce risky behavior
(Usually 1 to 5 sessions lasting 5 mins. to 1hr .)
4. Brief Therapy - Help patients address unhealthy cognitions and behaviors associated
with current use patterns and adopt change through a limited number (typically 6 to
20) of evidence-based sessions
5. Referral to Treatment- Patients identified as needing more intensive treatment than
BI are referred to specialty SUD treatment providers
S2BI:Screening to Brief Intervention
• Developed by the Center for Adolescent Substance
Abuse Research (CeASAR), Children’s Hospital Boston, in
affiliation with Harvard Medical School
• Frequency screen that triages adolescents into risk
categories based on the DSM-5 diagnoses for SUDs
• Frequency questions are recommended for screening
adults and are used in the NIAAA Youth Alcohol Screen.
A small study at BCH also suggested they are also
accurate with teens.
S2BI
In the past year, how many times have you used
• Tobacco?
• Alcohol?
• Marijuana?
STOP if all “Never.” Otherwise, CONTINUE.
• Prescription drugs that were not prescribed for
you (such as pain medication or Adderall)?
• Illegal drugs (such as cocaine or Ecstasy)?
• Inhalants (such as nitrous oxide)?
• Herbs or synthetic drugs (such as salvia, "K2", or
bath salts)?

• The provider has valid, client self-reported information
that is used in brief intervention.
• The act of screening sets in motion a process of
client reflection on their substance use behavior, and
provides a launching point for behavior change.

have you ever used
• Negative Screen?
o Inquire (probe) if all answers negative
o Provide feedback about the results

PRESCREENING
ACTIVITY
The ASSIST (World Health Organization)
• Developed by the ASSIST Working Group in 2002
• Used Primarily to Assess:
o Frequency of substance use
o Category/type of substances used
o Risk level of alcohol, illicit drugs & tobacco in past 3 months
• Illicit substances (drug use) are weighted differently for
men & women
• Use “response card” to help people being interviewed
to focus on the questions being asked
The ASSIST V3.0 – Series of 8 Questions

ASSIST: Introduction Read to Person
Thank you for agreeing to take part in this brief interview about alcohol,
tobacco products and other drugs. I am going to ask you some questions
about your experience of using these substances across your lifetime and in
the past three months. These substances can be smoked, swallowed,
snorted, inhaled, injected or taken in the form of pills (show drug card).
Some of the substances listed may be prescribed by a doctor (like
amphetamines, sedatives, pain medications). For this interview, we will not
record medications that are used as prescribed by your doctor. However, if
you have taken such medications for reasons other than prescription, or
taken them more frequently or at higher doses than prescribed, please let
me know. While we are also interested in knowing about your use of various
illicit drugs, please be assured that information on such use will be treated
as strictly confidential.
NOTE: BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS,
GIVE ASSIST RESPONSE CARD TO CLIENT
ASSIST Questions 6-8 focus on:
1. Others’ expressing concern about his/her substance use
2. Individual’s failed attempts to stop/cut down,
3. Injection of drugs

SBIRT Billing Codes
• October 14, 2011 CMS began covering annual alcohol screening & for
those that screen positive up to 4 brief, face-to-face behavioral counseling
interventions annually for Medicare beneficiaries including pregnant
women. Each of the 4 behavioral counseling interventions must be
consistent with the 5As approach:
• Assess: Ask about/assess behavioral health risk(s) and factors affecting
choice of behavior change goals/methods.
• Advise: Give clear, specific, and personalized behavior change advice,
including information about personal health harms and benefits.
• Agree: Collaboratively select appropriate treatment goals and methods
based on the patient’s interest in and willingness to change the behavior.
• Assist: Using behavior change techniques (self-help and/or counseling),
aid the patient in achieving agreed-upon goals by acquiring the skills,
confidence, and social/environmental supports for behavior change,
supplemented with adjunctive medical treatments when appropriate.
• Arrange: Schedule follow-up contacts (in person or by telephone) to
provide ongoing assistance/support and to adjust the treatment plan as
needed, including referral to more intensive or specialized treatment.
Health Care Providers can provide
SBIRT services under Medicare
• Medicare pays for medically reasonable & necessary SBIRT
services in physicians’ offices & outpatient hospitals
• Physicians, Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners,
Clinical Nurse Specialists, Clinical Psychologists, or Clinical
Social Workers can bill for SBIRT
• To bill Medicare, providers of MH services must be:
o Licensed or certified to perform mental health services
by the state in which they perform the services;
o Qualified to perform the specific mental health services
rendered; and
o Working within their State Scope of Practice Act
